Summer 'is waning. 0 El Sunday night's rain was very wel- come, we have heard no complaints about it at all and we hope it is not too long until we have another as fine a one. E Q a Canadian police will do .well to nip in the bud any attempt to 'introduce into this country the kidnapping racket. Citizens of this country will not tolerate that sort of thing. and After several weeks 'intermission . the Weekly Sun is again corning 'to our' desk. • It is now an eight -page paper and while it claims to be the —paper of the ,farmer it is strongly :•.supporting the. C.C.F. Matters. in Europe are in a 'bad -. state. We cannot but think that if the people in those countries would pay attention to their knitting and 1. stop killing their neighbors they,'and the world, generally, would be a great deal.better off.

It is just twenty years since Britain entered • the War, which at that time was not the "Great" war, we fondly hoped II it might. be over in a few months. A • generation of people have since been born and have grown to 'man- hood and womanhood, while the chil- dren who were four, six or ten years of age have very- little if any recol- "ieetion of that mighty conflict. i OHI The Clinton News -Record has an • article under the heading, 'TTAre Cie- ver Women Happy?" The N.-R.'s ed- itress should be able to answer that • query.-1Goderich Signal. Thanks, brother, for the implied compliment —. it' was a compliment, wasn't it? But we're quite happy, - thank you, so, judging by the writer • of that artiele, we cannot claim to be A clever. Oh, well, who cared We'd • rather be happy than clever any day, • especially in the "good old summer • time." En ® l7 It is difficult to understand the - mentality of the theatre managers in the 'United States who are procuring • the Dillinger family, father and bro- ther of John Dillinger, robber and • murderer, to appear on the stage, and the public which will make such a feature profitable 'to the theatres. What sort of people would pay nion- ey to go and see and hear these peo- ple talk, if they do talk? One can understand people going to hear a • musical program, a play, either hum- ourous or drama, but what makes people want to go any length to see and hear these people who must be. cashing -in on the tragedy of their own lives if they accept such an of- fer, is beyond the ken of the ordin- ary human. Those hunger marchers were sure- ' ly ungrateful to Mr. Hepburn when they condemned him and members of his government. He seemed to be doing his best for them, at Ieast he did his best to have them come into the city, although he 'did not stay te meet thein, Our opinion is that no matter what a government did would not be right. The instigators of this whole movement are apparently out •_with the assumlition that whatever a government does is wrong no matter how right it is. Theft • idea is to overthrow governments. It has always seemed a groat pity • that those people who profess 'to ad - Mire the Russian plan so much could. • not be sent to Russia for a while to •- find out at first hand just' how they would like it. They Might not be so enamoured of it after a fair trial.: It ` is the far away fields which always look the greenest, and it would lie a pity to pull down Canada's roof a-. ' bout our heads, when it might not even suit the folk Who are clamoring - for it the loudest. LONDON ROAD) Mrs. S. Glidden of Clinton is spending the week with her daugh- ter, Mrs. Glen McKnight.

MOUNT ROBSON DEFIES SKILL OF 'ALPINISTS Once again Mount Robson, Mon- arch of the Canadian Rockies, has withstood the efforts of the Alpine Club to reach its peak. With an ele- vation of 12,972 feet, Mount Robson is the highest peak in the Canadian Rocky mountain range, and after a 10 -day attempt to conquer its height, reaching into the clouds,' Alfred E. Beaver, of New York City, accom- panied by guide Hans Fuhrer, of Mil- waukee, formerly a regular guide at Jasper Park Lodge, and Henry Firtch, of Mount Robson Park, reported lack of success. The party reached the 11,000 -foot level but snow and wen- ther conditions forced them to return. Although weather conditions were reported as "unfavorable" and the "going heavy", a party under the leadership of Capt. Rox. Gibson, of Edmonton, made a two-day expecli, tion over the glaciers, surrounding the 1934 Alpine Camp, in the Emma ite Valley. The ascent' of Mount Eremite was also made by J. A. Cor- ry, of Saskatoon, W. H. Cleveland, of Evanston, Ill., and Prof. and Mrs. Andrew Graham, of Toronto. Thun- derbolt Peak and McDonnell Peak were also climbed. OLD BOYS HOLD REUNION PICNIC Many Former Residents of Bruce, Iiuron. and Grey Counties En- joy Outing at Gorge (From the Victoria Daily Colonist) Memories of the days when hardy pioneers developed the counties of Bruce, Huron and Grey, in Ontario, were recalled in a truly reunion :at- mosphere, when the $rice and Huron Old Boys' Association, of Victoria held. its second annual basket picnic and sports day at the B.C. Electric Pavia the Gorge, yesterday. More than 150 former residents of Bruce,i Huron and Grey 'Counties,' with their children, joined in one group to participate in games and community singing, under the chair- manship of President Neil Pollock. Rev'. F. W. McKinnon pain a strik- ing tribute to the pioneers of Ontar- io. Kindness and sympathy were predominant in their make-up, he said. Mr. Mckinnon then, went on to illustrate his point by recounting in- cidents in the lives of the early pion vers, showing the above qualities were born of a •common lot of that day. Crowning•these two character- istics,,he said, was the respect for the eternal as represented by the higher ualiti if q es'of life. • Rev, I. A. McKelvey spoke briefly, as did Rev. George R. R. Cameron, of Vancouver. They both paid their respects to the gathering. During the clay,' the pieknickers were. entertained by Highland dance ing and the sailors' hornpipe by Miss Jessie Pollock, accompanied by Pipe Major Donald Cameron.

CIGARETTE BUTTS CAUSE OF FIRES During the hot weather, when the forest lands hake under tremendous heat waves, various reports are re- ceived by the operating department of the Canadian National Railways of fires which break out in the vicin- ity of the right -of -Way but sufficient- ly far from the tracks to preclude the possibility of a locomotive starting the blaze. A typical report of this nature was one received from the Huntsville Subdivision, in the Mus- koka District, which stated that ear- ly in the evening a fire was found burning more than 300 yards distant from the tracks and close to a road. Before the blaze could be extinguish- ed by theuse of sand 10 acres of stumps and slashing had been burn- ed over. The cause was eventually fixed as a lighted cigarette butt canoe lessly thrown away from a passing vehicle. Before the 1 f fire was extin- guished section nien had to work many hours overtime. It is not gen- erally known but all locomotives op- erating through forest lands carry every protection to prevent sparks starting fires.
